Chapter 42 Flying on a Sword (Please recommend! Please continue reading!)
After all, it is a wood-type flying sword, so its hardness and lethality are definitely inferior to those of a metal flying sword.

However, the Ink Bamboo Sword is not without its own advantages. Because its main material is spirit bamboo, the flying sword is lighter and more agile. In the future, when flying through the sky, its speed will be slightly faster than that of the Five Metal Flying Sword.

Moreover, in addition to the complete method of forging the Ink Bamboo Sword and several sword control techniques recorded in the jade slip, there is also a method for repairing flying swords called the Sword Nourishment Technique.

If the Ink Bamboo Sword is damaged in future battles with other people's magical weapons, it can be perfectly restored by slowly repairing it with the Sword Nourishing Technique.

Even if a flying sword breaks in two, the Sword Nourishing Technique can save it.

However, the repair process could take decades or even centuries.

"The sword nurturing technique may seem insignificant now, but it will be very useful in the future if we have a second-tier flying sword."

Bai Zichen immediately recognized the importance of the sword-nurturing technique, which could greatly extend the lifespan of flying swords.

The flying sword has been marked with marks and cracks from years of combat. If left unattended, it will become more and more serious over time. Only a master craftsman can repair it.

However, each repair costs spirit stones, and multiple repairs also affect the quality of the flying sword itself.

With the Sword Nourishment Technique, there's no need to worry about this at all. You can freely control your flying swords to fight without any hesitation or heartache.

Unfortunately, the Sword Nurturing Technique only works on wood-type flying swords; otherwise, it would be fiercely contested by sword cultivators in the cultivation world.

"I really don't know how our ancestor took this secret sword-forging manual from the Fish-Dragon Sect back then. This is only one-third of the content. There are also two other methods for forging flying swords... I don't know where the Fish-Dragon Sect is located or what level of power it is. The records passed down in the clan don't mention it at all."

According to Bai Xianzong, the materials needed to forge the other two flying swords in the jade slip left by the Bai family ancestor were even more precious and far beyond what the Bai family could have hoped for.

So for hundreds of years, not a single one has been refined; it has remained idle.

Bai Zichen could glean from the existing content that this sword-forging inheritance was anything but ordinary, not to mention the wondrous method of sword nurturing.

"After I reach the Foundation Establishment stage, I'll ask the clan leader for the complete sword-forging inheritance to see if I'll have the opportunity to forge one in the future..."

The only thing that could make the Bai family not even dare to dream of it must be a second-tier flying sword, something that only cultivators in the late Foundation Establishment stage or even the peak Foundation Establishment stage would dare to hope for.

In fact, due to the special nature of flying swords, there are very few third-tier flying swords, and many Core Formation elders only carry second-tier swords.

For several days in a row, Bai Zichen was familiarizing himself with the Ink Bamboo Sword.

No matter where we go, even when we're eating or sleeping, we hold each other close.

It wasn't until a week later that he dared to try flying on his sword for the first time. He found a desolate mountain nearby and flew low on his sword.

After all, flying on a sword is different from using a flying magic weapon; the difficulty of using the two is not on the same level.

Each flying artifact was stable and reliable. As long as you activated it twice according to the instructions, you could get started quickly.

But flying on a sword is different. The starting speed is too fast and it is too agile. There have been cases where people have crashed into mountain walls, their swords destroyed and people killed.

Only a few feet off the ground, and circling the mountain at a speed slower than an ordinary person running at full speed, Bai Zichen felt dizzy and unsteady.

"It's so difficult. No wonder some cultivators, even though they have flying swords, still have to use flying magic tools when traveling. This thing may look cool, but it's definitely not as convenient as the Peach Blossom Pouch... Fortunately, I have divine sense, which greatly assists in sword control, so I'll definitely get the hang of it much faster than others."

With the successful test flight, Bai Zichen's confidence soared. Not only did he have divine assistance, but he also seemed to have a good grasp of flying swords.

In the short time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he had already gained some understanding of the various sword control techniques recorded in the jade slip.

This delighted Bai Zichen, who had finally discovered his true talent.

According to the score measured by the inheritance stone tablet, apart from the possibility of him being a spirit, all his other talents are very ordinary.

My current level of cultivation is all thanks to the changes brought about by my special spiritual body.

Suddenly discovering a talent that had nothing to do with spirits, he excitedly took to the sky on his sword again, flying in circles.

Gradually, Bai Zichen became more and more proficient at flying on his sword. He was no longer as straightforward as he had been at the beginning, and he did not know how to change his flight path. He would slow down when the terrain became slightly complicated.

A streak of dark blue sword light weaved through the mountains like a swimming fish, its speed increasing until it became light and agile, displaying some of the characteristics of a wood-type flying sword.

"Whoosh... What peach blossom pouch? It can't even keep up with my exhaust fumes, who would want to use it!"

Bai Zichen flew freely until his magic power was exhausted, then he landed crookedly on the ground, carefully putting away his ink bamboo sword.

He made up his mind that, regardless of whether the Ink Bamboo Sword was damaged or not, he would use the Sword Nourishing Technique to nurture it whenever he had free time.

"Unfortunately, the jade slip doesn't contain much information about sword cultivation. No matter how much you practice, you can only improve your proficiency with flying swords, which is fundamentally different from sword cultivation."

Bai Zichen had seen a description of sword cultivators in a miscellaneous book, who specialized in the way of the sword and could break through all laws with a single sword.

This, of course, involves the practice of swordsmanship.

However, there is no legitimate sword cultivation sect in the entire Mizhou. The few cultivators who are famous for their flying swords can only be considered flying sword enthusiasts, not true sword cultivators.

"I can only wait until I get to Qingfeng Sect and see if the sect has any sword cultivation techniques stored there... If they don't have any there either, I can only wait until I reach the Foundation Establishment stage before going out to look for opportunities."

In all these years, Qingfeng Sect has never produced a disciple famous for flying swords, so the chances of them having a sword cultivation lineage are probably not high.

Bai Zichen had no choice but to figure it out on his own for the time being.

He even set aside half a day for Bai Qiguang and the others, saying he would guide them in their cultivation.

Bai Qiguang and his group took this very seriously, and they pooled their money to buy a mid-grade first-tier lightning strike talisman as a congratulatory gift.

A single lightning strike talisman is worth nearly five spirit stones. Bai Zichen certainly wouldn't care about such a small gift, but for Bai Qiguang and the others, it would probably take all the spirit stones they had to spend to make it worthwhile.

"Have a heart."

Bai Zichen tossed the exquisite wooden box containing the lightning strike talisman into his storage bag; he was satisfied with the attitude of the others.

Although I am willing to give guidance to a few people, if they are ungrateful and take it for granted, then this little class will only be held once and will not happen again.

Given Bai Qiguang's current attitude, Bai Zichen felt that it wouldn't be a problem to set aside half a day each week to answer their questions before they joined the Qingfeng Sect.

After learning more, Bai Zichen realized that the group's qualifications were indeed quite poor.

Two useless spiritual roots and two pseudo-spiritual roots. No wonder two of them have been in the clan for three years and are still stuck at the first level of Qi Refining.

Bai Zichen's breakthrough was incredibly smooth, so he naturally didn't have much experience to share. However, he was still a minor expert at the sixth level of Qi Refining, so he could easily guide a few novices at the first level of Qi Refining.

On the contrary, because he started with the three spiritual roots and had a very good understanding of the slow progress in the early stages of Qi Refining, the methods he came up with were always practical and useful to Bai Qiguang and the others.

All four of them felt they had gained a lot that afternoon.

When they left, they all paid their respects to their teacher with the utmost respect, showing their heartfelt admiration.
